- Never start your morning immediately with shaving.
- If you do sports, shave after to avoid the irritation caused by the sweat
- Showering with warm water softens the hair shafts which will result in less resistance when shaving. You can also substitute with a warm-damp towel.
- Use pre-shave gel or oil if you are a pro.
- A short face-massage with warm water will help in preparing your skin before shaving.
- If you apply any gel or foam, apply it on wet skin. This will result in more hydrated skin.
- Use quality products. Your skin remembers and appreciates the effort you invest in it. You’ll see later.
- If you use a brush, make sure you wash before and after usage.
- Make sure your blade is sharp and clean.
- Never push the blade too hard and make sure your skin is stretched.
- Shave according to the direction of your facial hair growth.
- After shaving, rinse your skin and apply moisturizing cream which you must select based on your skin type.
